Or is this some sort of blessing from yet another third party mastermind? Discuss....
$700? are you talking about MISB or loose

MISB of course. $700 probably isn't exact, but just wanted to throw a number out there..
edit-nevermind... $700 isn't even close, haha, probably like $300-400

Yeah, I'm sure it was more like $100-125 loose when I picked him up.
I'm somewhat interested, mainly because of the added articulation. Would like to see a few more pics though. Particularly of the head when the eyes aren't lit up.

He's not that brick like. Sure his legs and head are static, but he has articulation at the shoulders, elbows and wrists. Not bad for G1.

So yeah, I am sure gonna get that new head mold of Devastator. I already have custom heads for Ironhide and Ratchet as well. And I don't have complaints over them either. Beats 10-0 out of those stickerfaces on the driverseat anytime

Now someone just needs to come up with a replacement for the hip connector so Devs can have some articulated leg action....

For me, I'd just like to find the time to tear my folk's home apart and find all of the bits of my G1 version that I'm missing.

Information I want to know is simple: will the side gun plug into the side of his head? And will the head fold down like the G1 version for "battle mode" vehicle mode?
As far as that comment about "there's alot of collector's who are going to be reluctant to put some sort of third party head on a vintage figure like that" to clarify, Devy's head is a removable piece in G1, so putting a different removable head on the merge form isn't exactly taking away any value.
Besides, Devastator is not "that" expensive of a combiner. You can almost always find parts for him in junk lots on ebay. And if you don't at "least" own one of the $5 KO sets... I mean, come on...

I just ordered at CrazyDevy and received an email saying that the CMDW-02 is coming out as well and would be a new designed devastator hip connector, so that he will have movable thighs and can pose different poses flexibly.

So now he won't be as brickish anymore
